Where are Blossoms?

‘Brilliantly bizarre’.

So, over the last week or so, fans of indie rock five-piece Blossoms (two of which are City fans - Tom Ogden and Joe Donovan), have been speculating on the band’s whereabouts after they announced a new album last summer.

In response, a light-hearted documentary entitled: ‘Where are Blossoms?’ has been created to explain.

As NME’s Nick Reilly explains: “In the short film, it’s claimed that each member has gone off to pursue their own individual passions after the success of their 2016 debut, and there’s some unexpected new ventures in store.

“It’s initially revealed that bassist Charlie Salt now ‘works’ as a mascot for Stockport County FC, while drummer Joe Donovan now runs an ice cream van that chimes out to the sound of their very own ‘Charlemagne’.

“As the documentary progresses, the new occupations become increasingly bizarre – and it culminates in a clip that sees Myles Kellock undertaking an unlikely foray into hip-hop as he records a ‘Fire In The Booth’ session with Radio 1 Xtra’s Charlie Sloth.

“But the clip also teases that a return could be on the horizon, with the date ‘01.03.2018’ briefly flashing on screen at the very end of the documentary.”
